Tips

Ally tips

- Picking up Daggers will significantly reduce Shunpo's cooldown.- Try waiting until the other team is distracted with fighting your team, and use Shunpo to teleport into the fray and unleash a devastating Death Lotus.- Using Shunpo on an allied Champion, Dagger, or minion can be a great escape tactic.

Counter Tips

- Katarina's abilities deal magic damage, so even if she's building Attack Damage items, get magic resistance to counter her.- Try to save a disable for when Katarina uses her Death Lotus.
